ABSTRACT Annotated genomes of Caballeronia strains SBC1 and SBC2 from acidic permafrost suggest a new species with a facultative lifestyle via oxygen and nitrate respiration. Thus, a contribution to nitrogen cycling in cold and low-pH environments is anticipated.

Summary: Two similar micro-organisms with the characteristics of the order Mycoplas-matales were isolated from the eyes of calves with conjunctivitis. Both isolates produced only a slight pH decrease in broth and did not ferment glucose or hydrolyse arginine or urea -- hence they were almost undetectable by fluid cultures. Other biological characters included sterol dependence, indicative of the genus Mycoplasma, production of film and spots, growth at low temperature (20°C) or low pH (4.7), and failure to reduce tetrazolium. The two strains were serologically indistinguishable from each other, but distinct from known bovine and other Mycoplasma species tested. Because of their distinct biological and serological characteristics they are proposed as forming a separate new species, Mycoplasma verecundum, with strain 107 (nctc10145) as the type strain.

Passionfruit plantation in Vietnam increased to 10,000 ha in 2019. However, the outbreaks of passionfruit woodiness disease (PWD) have become a serious threat for the production. In this study, five virus isolates DN1, DN4, NA1, GL1 and GL2 were collected from different areas of Vietnam. Their causal roles for PWD were verified by back inoculation to passionfruit. Analyses of coat protein (CP) and genomic sequences revealed that GL1 isolate is closely related to East Asia Passiflora virus (EAPV) AO strain of Japan (polyprotein nt/aa identities of 98.1% / 98.2%), while GL2 isolate is related to Telosma mosaic virus (TelMV) isolate PasFru, China (polyprotein nt/aa identities of 87.1% / 90.9%). CP comparison, host range and cytological characterization indicated that DN1, DN4 and NA1 are potyviruses, but different from EAPV and TelMV. Phylogenic analyses of their CP and genome sequences indicated that these three isolates and passionfruit severe mottle-associated virus Fujian isolate of China belong to a distinct clade, which does not satisfy the threshold (76% nt identity of polyprotein) to be regarded as any of potyviral species. Thus, a new species name of “Passiflora mottle virus” has been proposed by ICTV. A rabbit antiserum was produced against the CP of DN1 and it can discriminate Passiflora mottle virus (PaMoV) from TelMV and EAPV in western blotting and ELISA without cross reactions. Field surveys of 240 samples by ELISA and RT-PCR disclosed that PWD in Vietnam is mainly caused by PaMoV; followed by EAPV, mixed-infection of PaMoV/EAPV, and rare cases of TelMV.

“Candidatus Thioglobus sp.” strain NP1 is an open-ocean isolate from the SUP05 clade of Gammaproteobacteria. Whole-genome comparisons of strain NP1 to other sequenced isolates from the SUP05 clade indicate that it represents a new species of SUP05 that lacks the ability to fix inorganic carbon using the Calvin-Benson-Bassham cycle.

We describe a new species of Cephalodella, C. acidophila n. sp., from the plankton of two extremely acidic mining lakes (pH Cephalodella delicata Wulfert. It shares with the latter an almost identical trophi morphology and anatomical organization, but differs clearly by form and length of its toes, larger body size, and ecology. Laboratory experiments revealed that the species is acidophilic, i.e. it thrives at low pH (Chlamydomonas acidophila. The easily cultured species has previously been used in various experimental studies, but has only now been recognized as an undescribed species.

We report 17 draft genomes for 14 unidentified Veillonella sp. strains closely related in 16S rRNA gene-based phylogeny and type strains of 3 Veillonella species with the aims of deciphering relationships between related species, evaluating the accuracy of current thresholds for species delineation, and robustly describing new species in the genus.
